Equipment

  • 1 skillet
  • 1 kitchen lighter or long match

Ingredients
  

  • 4 crepes
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • Juice and zest of an orange
  • 4 oz Grand Marnier
  • orange segments can also be added to the sauce

Instructions
 

  • Heat a skillet over medium heat.
  • Sprinkle the sugar evenly over the bottom. Allow it to melt and begin to caramelize. If sugar crystals begin to form along the side you can use a wet pastry brush to brush them down.
  • Add the orange juice, butter, and zest, and stir to combine. Allow the mixture to come to a simmer and reduce to thicken, about 5 minutes.
  • Quickly dip a crepe into the sauce making sure both sides are coated. Fold into a triangle.
  • Repeat with the remaining crepes.
  • Add the Grand Marnier. Use a kitchen lighter or long match to ignite the sauce.
  • Serve with the crepes and enjoy!
